Volunteer Forum

I will be grateful if somebody can advice me which volunteer company can be trusted. I would like to try myself as a volunteer to get some experience. Actually, I am from Belarus, but for the last 5 years have studied and lived in Turkey. So, I've just graduated from English Language and Literature Department. I can teach English, Turkish or Russian. Furthermore, I am interested in dancing very much and do have experience as a dance instructor. Hoping that I might be useful, thank you in advance...

Hi Vlada,

Have a look at this website: www.realexperiencethailand.com
I'm an intern there at the moment and they are very trustworthy.

Kind regards,
Sandra

Hi Valda
Iam called Michael and
would like to invite you to
volunteer with us in Uganda
if you are still considering to.
Let me know if you are interested
and i will give you full details.
Regards

Thank you very much for the replies!
Sandra, I did really like the projects described (I love animals, and have experience in working with children), yet my main concern is the material side of the matter. Participation fee is something I cannot afford at the moment.
Michael, I consider going anywhere, for my chief goal is to contribute and learn something. However, as I stated above, I do not have much to spend, so if you still see my candidature suitable I will be glad to receive detailed information. My email : vlada.tcherkachina@gmail.com. Kindest regards

I would avoid companies as most of them charge a lot of money just to use their service. What kind of work are you looking for? And what country are you looking to volunteer in?
